Comments Thread For: Pacquiao Coach Explains Why Boxer Has Surpassed Floyd Mayweather

[Spoon23]

23 year old Canelo, waaay down-hill Coto, maidana after losing a bunch of times and a stint in retirement. It goes on and on. Pacquiao never so blatantly tried to rip off the boxing world as Mayweather did.

Epic shutdown!

Pac had his chance to prove he was better than floyd.

He ended up with an L and a bunch of excuses.

The punch that made Floyd fight Manny six years later.

Manny was widely reported to be considering a fight with McGregor but in the end didn't fight him. Mayweather did fight McGregor.

Did I get anything wrong?

———-
You are intentionally leaving context out. Manny did not fight McGregor because McGregor lost his UFC bout BUT the plan was for Manny fight him.
You are trying to twist the narrative that Manny didn’t want the fight.

He wanted the fight despite being vocal and critical of Floyd for fighting the McGregor. That is called hypocrisy

100% Pacquiao surpassed Mayweather even up to this point and he’s still going. It’s the level of opponents, the challenges Pacquiao has faced head on. Mayweather didn’t fight anyone with a chance to win (except pacquiao) in the last 10 years of his career: always slower, past their primes or too green (canelo), totally over matched opponents. And his style was always akin to a cheat, a glorified version of running. Not quite hit and don’t get hit, more like don’t get hit and pitti-pat your way to a decision. Plus Mayweather clearly run away from the most dangerous opponents during his time including a prime Pacquiao. 2009 pacquiao would have knocked him out unconscious. No doubt about it.

He couldn’t KO Clottey but he could KO Floyd?? He himself got KO’d by Marquez while he was in his prime. Meanwhile in 2009 Floyd wiped the floor with Marquez. Your logic is way off!

Huh?!?!?

More compromised than having a torn rotator cuff in a fricken boxing match? NO WAY

So you just said that after saying emotions shouldn't be involved? Sorry but that's just pure ignorance.

And nobody said Floyd was scared to be hurt by Manny. But, yeah, he is/was scared to lose a fight. That's why he wouldn't dare talk about the Manny fight until he showed signs of being beatable after getting sparked by JMM.

Spence pulled out of the biggest fight of his career because of his eye injury.
Floyd and Marquez were supposed to fight in July but Floyd got injured and the fight was moved to September.

Why the fück didn’t Manny pull out if he was injured?
After David Haye got beat by Wladimir, he showed that he fought with an injured toe. He claims he would have won. Do you believe him and his injury?
Donaire claimed rotator cuff injury after lost to Rigondeux, was he telling the truth?
Why not reschedule? Why find an excuse after losing? Pure logic!

Floyd knows Pac is way ahead of him all time and Pac knows it too. The 2 boxers who are being judged know better than anyone.
that's why Floyd will always be happy his name is mentioned along pace name as Pac brings Floyd up. On the other hand Pac don't like continually being associated with floyd as Floyd cramps Pac s style.
People instinctively and sub consciously know Floyd's not quite up there, so if Pac is Floyd level it would give people impression Pac isn't right up there neck and neck with srr

Stop being a simple-minded Manny fan he told you about that simple-minded stuff that you believe in, now listen to your hero.

We’re not talking about who beat whom dummy, but about accomplishments and legacy. In time Pacquiao will be regarded as a great and Mayweather as a bit of hack. If Mayweather had faced Pacquiao in 2009 when the world was clamoring for it it would be a different story. And he would have gotten his ass kicked worse than Castillo. And that’s just one example of all the people Mayweather avoided like the plague.

Yes Pac has accomplished more it's clear. It's not about h2h with one fight and no rematch, because if it was Pac would have made sure fight is in Philippines
